What are you tracking in the tropics?

Cristina has dissipated in the Pacific, but the remnant moisture is coming for the southwest Gulf. The National Hurricane Center has given the remnants of this storm a 10% chance of re-forming into an Atlantic tropical system over the Bay of Campeche. That’s the moisture that surges in here this weekend and early next week.
